Born into an artistic milieu, Verboeckhoven began his artistic journey under the tutelage of his father, Barthélemy Verboeckhoven, himself a sculptor.

He upheld a tradition rooted in the 17th century, emphasizing the observation of nature and the idealized reproduction of reality. Like the Old Masters before him, Verboeckhoven employed traditional techniques such as grinding lapis lazuli for his skies, demonstrating a commitment to craftsmanship and authenticity.
